Healthy Recipe – Keto Butternut Squash & Parmesan Dip

Ingredients

  • 2 cups butternut squash, roughly chopped (about 10 oz)
  • 2 tbs olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tsp garlic paste, or minced garlic
  • ½ cup shredded Parmesan
  • 1-2 tbs heavy cream, as needed
  • Fresh parsley, to garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375F,
  2. Place the squash on a small baking sheet and drizzle some olive oil over. Season with salt and pepper, and roast until tender – about twenty minutes.
  3. Add the cooked squash to a blender, together with garlic paste, softened cream cheese, and shredded Parmesan. Blend until smooth.
  4. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper if necessary. If the dip is too thick, add a tablespoon or two of heavy cream, and blend again.
  5. Spoon the dip into a serving bowl and garnish with fresh parsley for some extra color. This dip is extra delicious when served warm!
